Welcome to My Personal Finance Skills
My Personal Finance Skills delivers free financial education workshops to schools across the country to help students understand more about money and leave school ‘life-ready’. These workshops are targeted at students across KS4-5 (14-18 years old) are ideal for enrichment days, PSHE/Citizenship lessons or career insight days and can help you meet some of the Gatsby benchmarks.
Due to ongoing school closures as a result of Covid-19, we have adapted our programme to offer a selection of free on-demand financial education sessions which can be found below as well as under the students tab. As soon as it is safe and possible to do so, we will start our in-school financial education workshops.
